section, the FAA is charged with 

prescribing regulations to assign the use 

of airspace necessary to ensure the

airspace. This regulation is within the 

scope of that authority as it would 

amend Class E airspace at TruckeeTahoe Airport, Truckee, CA.

Availability and Summary of 

Documents Proposed for Incorporation 

by Reference 

This document would amend FAA 

Order 7400.9Z, Airspace Designations 

and Reporting Points, dated August 6, 

2015, and effective September 15, 2015. 

FAA Order 7400.9Z is publicly available 

as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order 7400.9Z lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations 

(14 CFR) Part 71 by modifying Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Truckee-Tahoe 

Airport, Truckee, CA. The FAA 

identified that Homewood Seaplane 

Base, a closed runway, was contained in 

the current Truckee-Tahoe airport legal 

description. A review of the TruckeeTahoe airspace was completed 

eliminating the Homewood Seaplane 

Base from the legal description and 

removing airspace no longer required 

for Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) 

operations at the airport. The Class E 

airspace area would be modified to 

within a 4.2-mile radius of the TruckeeTahoe Airport, with segments extending 

from the 4.2-mile radius to 19 miles 

north of the airport, and 16.5 miles 

northwest of the airport. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2015, 

and effective September 15, 2015, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designations

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a 

‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under 

Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a 

‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT 

Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 

FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) 

does not warrant preparation of a 

regulatory evaluation as the anticipated 

impact is so minimal. Since this is a 

routine matter that will only affect air 

traffic procedures and air navigation, it 

is certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, would not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1F, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.
